Plan a Fishing Trip on Tawas Bay and the Au Sable River

When you’re in Oscoda on the shores of Lake Huron, you’re in a fishing paradise. Whether you’re looking for a fun activity to fill an open morning or afternoon or you’ve made a special trip and planned a fishing excursion getaway with someone special, the Au Sable River and Tawas Bay area is one of the best in the region. 

Fishing in Tawas Bay includes walleye, northern pike, yellow perch, brown trout, and smallmouth bass. During the fall, whitefish, steelhead, brown trout, lake trout, and walleye all move along the shoreline of the bay. Fish from shore, the dock, your own boat, or book a charter with a host of options in town.

Bait and tackle shops in the area include the AuSable Marina, AuSable River Store, B&M Bait Shop, Northeast Michigan Marine, and Wellmans Sport Center. If you’re looking to book a fishing excursion with a charter, contact Calypso Sportfishing Center in Oscoda or Jerry’s Marina in East Tawas. Pontoon boat rentals from Jerry’s Marina are $300 per day or $200 for four hours. Enjoy great fishing, beautiful sunsets, and more as you relax on the waters in Tawas Bay. Calypso also offers river charters for those seeking an experience on the scenic Au Sable River.
